THE RECIDIVISTS-The ones who have been arrested for repeated atrocities and released by their political godfathers to be used for perpetrating crimes during the election. They come to steal ballot papers, vote with fake voters card, and some of them even have ballot boxes stashed in their houses in disuetude only to be used for rigging. angry

Irrespective of where we all stand, we must realise that FeBuhari 14 provide us a lifetime opportunity to save Nigeria from the Grip of saTANists and the retrogressive PDP. Voting the PDP candidate at the Presidential level is synonymous to sending Nigeria to a 50years jail term without parole. Join hands and let us save our country and future. Support Change, Vote Muhammadu Buhari For President. #God bless Nigeria

voiceofnigeria:
In few weeks to come Nigerians will be casting their votes in the 2015 elections. One of the things we should be talking about right now is why people vote and for whom they vote for.

Some people think Nigerians only vote based on ethnicity and religion. However, the voting behaviour is not so one-directional. Last year, Christians voted for Babatunde Fashola as well as Muslims did. Yoruba people voted for Jonathan in Lagos, but voted for Ribadu in Osun. The point is, the voting patterns don’t fit a narrow spectrum, and various things determine the choices Nigerians make when they cast their ballot. These are six types of voters that are most prevalent in Nigeria.

The revolutionists

Who they are: These people really just want one thing: change. Every other thing is negligible to them. Their belief is that the incumbent is the problem and that having someone new there will be the solution. These people have concluded that things won’t ever be better if the incumbent continues to run the government. So they’ll vote for any candidate except the incumbent in order to kick the incumbent out and produce a change.

The partisans

Who they are: These ones often vote in adherence to their favourite party. For them it’s not really about the candidate. It’s about the party. They will vote for anyone their favourite party brings forward. They’re convinced that their party is the answer to the problems in the country and that anyone this party presents is the suitable candidate. This is whom they’ll vote for. No matter what they learn about this party, they’re convinced that it’s better than the others and that voting for this party is the wise choice to make.


The ethnicists

Who they are: Ethnicists aren’t chiefly interested in partisanship or change. Their loyalty is to the candidate whose tribe, religion or sex matches theirs. In other words, they want to vote for their own person. This person may not be the most qualified or the most fit for the position. But since he or she is their person, it’s whom they want to vote for.

The devotees

Who they are: Devotees are inclined towards the man of the people. They support charismatic people, someone who bonds with them or whose personality they simply love. These people don’t look at the party or religion or ethnicity of the person they’re voting. They admire the person because of his character, his attitude towards people and his public image and they just feel endeared to him. If this candidate moves from one party to another, they’ll still support him in the new party as they would have done if he was in the former party. They’re devoted to specific candidates more than anything else.

The sophisticated

Who they are: These ones are fastidious about politicians and rarely commit to anyone. They like to ask questions and examine candidates very carefully before voting for anyone. They don’t just go with the crowd or follow sentiments. They ask questions. They look at the facts. They check the records. They observe the candidates. They actually think about the person’s ideas and ideology before making a choice. They’re hard to win over, but they’re often ardent in their support when they commit to someone.

The cynics

Who they are: The cynics think everyone on the ballot paper is unsuitable, that they’re all the same corrupt and incompetent people and that it doesn’t matter whom you vote for anyway. They feel it’s going to be the same story at the end of the day and that nothing will change. They tend to think of voting as choosing between the lesser of two evils. They may or may not vote. But when they vote, it’s often out of obligation, not because they feel strongly about voting or feel strongly about voting for anyone on the list. They’re convinced that it’s not going to change anything.

Analysing voting behaviour helps us understand how people make up their minds about whom to vote for. It helps us determine how much progressing we’re making as a democracy and how well the electorate is making the right choices that will contribute to the development of the country. But whatever the pattern, the point is, people should be voting for what’s best for them and what’s best for their society.

What type are you? grin grin grin

didn't make sense at all.. Big zero 0... How will you support a party and vote for the opposition candidate. Does that make sense to you? B4 you supported the party, you must have felt that their candidate is the right person. I dont think anybody checks amy goddamn record b4 voting.. You vote for a person not cus of dia record buh becus you like him or her. Peace bro!

@OP,you forgot to mention one particular group

THE MONEY FOR HAND,BACK FOR GROUND GROUP

This group are people who don't really care about any other factor except money or any material gain.they go to the electoral booth,well prepared looking for any party agent or official who will give them money to vote for them.you see them refusing to queu up and cast their votes.just waiting patiently for someone to offer money.to them,elections are a means to gain something rather than wait after after the elections
